The highly-anticipated meeting came and went without any immediate clue from congressional lawmakers as to whether they had made any progress toward resolving the impending onset of automatic tax hikes and spending cuts set to take effect on Jan. 1.

But the president is scheduled to deliver a statement from the White House at 5:45 p.m. ET.

Oh goodie..we are going to hear from the Commie prick saying how Republicans are bad bad bad for not wanting to raise taxes on those evil rich people..Hey Im all for raising taxes on those rich celebrities who voted for the Marxist ass, just leave the rest of us the hell alone

They’re saying no deal but an understanding. sticking point is tax rates. Saying the last meeting was “constructive”. Sounds like the GOP caved but not enough info. GOP should go for the 400k limit Obummer offered previously.
